# Sprout Social Inc (SPT) fundamentals

Data as of 2026-09-08. NASDAQ, United States. Sector: Technology / Software. Price $11.36, market value $688 million.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): n/a** (negative earnings). Sprout Social Inc reported negative earnings over the last twelve months, so the P/E is not meaningful; use price-to-sales, EV/EBITDA and free-cash-flow yield instead.
- **PEG: 0.23**. A PEG of 0.23 means the P/E is low relative to expected earnings growth: the market is not paying much for that growth.
- **Price / sales: 1.4×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 1.4×.
- **Price / book: 3.0×**. The shares trade at 3.0× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 7.3%** (5-yr avg 1.6%). Free cash flow equals 7.3% of the market value, above its five-year average of 1.6%, so the shares are cheaper on cash than they have usually been. Above 5% is generally attractive.

## Profitability
- **Gross margin: 77.4%**. Sprout Social Inc keeps 77.4% of revenue after the direct cost of what it sells, the kind of margin that comes with software, brands or pricing power.
- **Operating margin: -5.9%**. Operating margin is negative: the business loses money before interest and tax.
- **Net margin: -9.5%**. The company reported a net loss over the last twelve months.
- **Return on equity: -21.3%**. Return on equity is negative because earnings are negative.
- **Return on invested capital: -15.2%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is -15.2%: close to or below the cost of capital, so growth may not create value.
- **Return on assets: -5.6%**. Each dollar of assets produces -5.6% of profit.

## Growth
- **Revenue growth (1 yr): 12.7%** (3-yr 21.7%/yr, 5-yr 28.0%/yr). Revenue grew 12.7% over the last year, against 28.0% a year compounded over five years: growth is slowing.
- **EPS growth (1 yr): 32.1%**. Earnings per share rose 32.1%, faster than revenue, so margins expanded or the share count shrank.
- **Free-cash-flow growth (3 yr): 64.4%/yr**. Free cash flow has compounded at 64.4% a year over three years.

## Financial health
- **Debt to equity: 0.20**. Debt is 0.20 times equity: a conservative balance sheet.
- **Altman Z-score: 2.44**. A Z-score of 2.44 is in the grey zone; not distressed, not clearly safe.
- **Piotroski F-score: 4/9**. 4 of 9 checks pass: mixed.

- **200-day average: above**. The price sits above its 200-day moving average, the usual definition of an uptrend.
- **RSI (14-day): 69**. An RSI of 69 is neutral.
- **Beta (1 yr): 0.93** (volatility 66%). Beta of 0.93 against the S&P 500: the shares move roughly with the market.
